" EVERYONE WAKE UP QUICK!!" Comes a female voice echoing in the entire room.
Miho slowly opened his eyes to find the source of the voice he found a red haired teenage girl wearing a brown and white female garb, who's walking around the room back and forth checking every bed.
" IT'S TIME FOR BREAKFAST GET UP!!" The girl with red hair said as she shakes a kid that's still in bed.
She's the girl from last night. Miho thought to himself as he thinks back of last night.
" I HATE YOU STUPID PRIEST!!!" The girl said throwing the wooden comb in her hand hitting the priest's head as she goes back inside and slams the door.
Then to the present..
Miho looks at Azel's bed but he's no longer there Miho sighs. Guess I overslept again.
Miho watches the kids slowly get up one by one from their bed some still sleepy but stood up as they fall in line leading to the stairs most of the kids seems to be twelve and below then before miho realized it he's the only one still in the bed.
" GUH! YOU THERE GET UP AND FALL IN LINE!" the girl with red hair said as she glares at miho.
Miho gulps as he quickly scrambles out of bed and follow the line as Miho walk towards the stairway direction.
Out of curiosity Miho turns to his back before going downstairs then he saw the red haired girl tending to his bed Miho then quickly looks away in embarassment as he quickly went downstairs.
Downstairs what greeted him was the spacious living room of the orphanage with several glass windows that magnifies the sunlight.
" Oh there you are my child now both of you are here" Francis greeted Miho as Miho went downstairs, Francis then gathered the kids in one place and then gestures Miho to stand beside him.
"Ok everyone meet your new sibling Miho tadahh!!" Francis said enthusiastically patting Miho's head
Sibling huh? I wonder how long will that last. Miho thought to himself as he looks at the kids faces filled with excitement.
"Miho is awake already?" Azel said as he peeks his head from the dining hall.
"And that person right there is big brother Azel" Francis continues as he directs his gaze towards Azel's direction.
The kids expression is filled with awe staring at Azel and Miho.
"Do they also know magic like big sister pyra?" A little boy asked as he looks at Azel with eyes filled with anticipation.
This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.
Pyra? Do they mean. Miho thought to himself as he directs his gaze upstairs.
"do you know how to cast magic my child? You know boom boom and whoosh" Francis asks Miho while making hand gestures.
It really annoys me at times when someone talks to me like a child. Miho thought himself as he sighs and shakes his head.
"I do know magic" Azel said proudly as he stood beside Francis .
"Wow show us magic big brother Azel" kids looked at Azel with admiration.
What a show off. Miho thought to himself as he looks at Azel and lets out a sigh.
"Alright watch this, Water Ray!" Azel said as he points his finger in certain direction while eyes closed.
The kids applaud as they saw a thread of water come out of Azel's fingertips.
Miho's eyes widened as he saw where Azel's spell landed.
Surely no one will notice that right?. Miho thought to himself as looks at the glass window with a tiny hole and cracks in it.
"Next time you broke another window you two are out of here alright Azel?" Francis said with a wide smile eyes closed sarcasm is evident in his tone.
Hearing those words Azel quickly bows his head.
"I'm sorry father Francis please forgive the two of us" The kids then bursted into laughter with Azel's display of remorse.
"I'm just messing with you get up my child" Francis said as he caresses Azel's head.
"Just avoid using magic indoors if not necessary alright my child?" Francis added as he helped Azel get up
Footsteps became audible as the girl with red hair descends from the stairs.
"Oh Pyra you're late let me properly introduce to your new siblings Azel and Miho tadahhh!" Francis calls out enthusiastically to the red haired girl while he pats Miho and Azel's back.
Pyra sighs and nods giving a uninterested look as she turns her back and heads towards the dining hall.
I hope I'm not the reason she's mad. Miho lets out a heavy sigh as he shakes his head.
"Don't worry she may act like that but she has a big heart you will see it if you squint enough" Francis said winking at Miho.
Later all of the kids along Miho went into the dining hall and took their respective seats Pyra, Azel and Francis serves the food on the two long rectangular tables.
After serving all the food Azel sat beside Miho, Francis took the seat on the host seat and pyra took a seat on another table.
Then before eating Francis lead the prayer as all kids including Pyra started praying before touching the food.
Everyone started eating except Miho as he scans his surroundings watching all the kids eat then watching Azel eat with vigor.
When was the last time i ate with someone?. Miho thought to himself as he thinks back in his past life during his adolescence.
"Well I got promoted into a......" said someone proudly, puffing it's chest.
Honestly i never felt like i belong during family dinners
"How about you how's your job?" Said that someone looking Miho that's just on his side.
Someone across the table then holds her laugher.
"Oh right you got rejected again that's alright you'll find a job eventually " said someone obviously holding his laughter too.
It's always about me being butt of the jokes or about their achievements i got sick of it.
Then to the present.
"Did it taste bad my child? I knew it i should've cooked instead of pyra" Said Francis then a wooden comb flew hitting his head.
"Right, you still haven't touched your food is something wrong?" Azel added with a concerned tone as he stopped eating to check on Miho.
Miho shakes his head as he then starts eating.
Soon after everyone finished eating the kids ran out of the dinning hall full of energy.
"Be careful everyone you just finished eating " Francis said as he sighs watching the kids exit the dinning hall.
A little boy then returned in the dining hall running towards Miho's direction.
"Come, play with us " the kid said enthusiastically as he pulled Miho's hand.
Right I guess in their eyes I'm at their age. Miho thought himself as he stares at the boy's hand that's holding his.
"Maybe next time " Miho said as he smiles wryly.
The kid then frowned a little as he lets go of Miho's hand then ran out of dining hall.
"Is he not the social type?" Francis asked talking to Azel who's now beside him as he stares towards Miho's direction.
"He's often the quite type he prefer reading than playing " Azel responds as he also took a glance at Miho before facing Francis again.
So that's how previous Miho was like huh? I guess that works in my favor. Miho thought to himself as he nods.
"Were all the kids here rescued by Klice too?" Azel asks as he stares at the dining hall doors.
"some but for the most part i rescued the others, The hotheaded girl right there was also saved by Klice " Francis said as he gaze towards the kitchen where Pyra is washing the dishes.
"I can hear you stupid priest" Pyra said in a irritated tone as she proceeds washing the dishes.
" Wait you also rescue kids but how?" Miho said curiously butting into Francis and Azel's conversation.
"Well that's-" Francis words trailed off as a knock in the door was suddenly heard.
